If the package is a stand-alone application (c.f. Barry's bzr example), 
it's not reasonable to ask end users to modify its code; they may not 
even be able to easily (i.e. root privileges required).  More generally, 
it seems unfair and unwise to ask the 10 000 users of a package to take 
action when ultimately the 1 maintainer of the package is the one who 
needs to do so.
